Japanese Comfort Food: Katsu Curry
Everything starts from scratch for this icon of Japanese home cooking.
Learn to make nama (fresh) panko to give your katsu cutlets a light and fluffy crunch. You’ll create your own curry powder and roux blocks for the tastiest, healthiest “instant” curry. Fall harvests will give us the vegetables for a batch of sweet and tangy fukujinzuke pickles, the traditional finishing touch for katsu curry. Take home your extra panko and curry blocks for the freezer.
